Giannis Antetokounmpo he wasn’t the only big name on the transfer market who didn’t change teams. While many expected the Milwaukee Bucks to decide to postpone any discussion regarding their franchise man until the summer, essentially everyone thought Ja Morant’s days with the Memphis Grizzlies were over. After the sales of Desmond Bane (in the summer at the Orlando Magic) and of Jaren Jackson Jr (two days ago at the Utah Jazz), the third of the Grizzlies’ “Big Three”. it seemed destined to be traded on the marketalso thanks to the difficult relationships with the coach Tuomas Iisalo and the continuous injury problems. However, the Grizzlies, strengthened by the many assets already accumulated, have set a line that cannot be crossed: they wouldn’t accept any offer without at least a first-round pick in it. Maybe some team has even put it on the table (even if the indications coming from NBA market insiders suggest not), but given Morant’s stay we know for sure that no offer was able to convince Memphis to give up the number 12who will therefore have to continue to live “separated at home” at least until the end of this season.
